SpaceX Shares Surge Following Q3 Earnings Beat and AI Expansion
Space Exploration Technologies (SpaceX) reported third-quarter revenue of $14.6 billion, significantly exceeding the LSEG consensus estimate of $12.7 billion. This represents a 161% year-over-year increase. Adjusted earnings per share reached $0.45, comfortably beating the forecasted $0.13. The strong financial performance was driven largely by Starlink's subscriber growth, which rose to 13.6 million users, and expanding interest in the company's artificial intelligence initiatives. Wall Street analysts responded bullishly to the results, with several major banks raising their price targets. Analysts highlighted SpaceX's vertical integration, its potential in orbital computing through Starship, and the growth of its Grok AI chatbot. The firm is also working toward volume production of AI-linked chips via a collaboration involving Tesla and Intel, positioning itself as a key player in both global connectivity and superintelligence.
